Riassunto:

This essential resource showcases renowned educator Phyllis Hunter's pivotal guidance for leaders, teachers, parents, and concerned citizens about how best to serve the literacy needs of students of colour.

Hunter addresses 12 pivotal understandings and practices that encourage successful reading that every educator who works with a diverse student population should understand. As Ms. Hunter maintains, “Reading is a civil right.”

As an advisor to the President of the USA, Phyllis C. Hunter has undoubted authority as an education expert. Well-curated class libraries with books that hold up a mirror to children of colour are at the core of Hunter’s approach. Hunter is driven by the belief that all children can, and should, achieve highly and that reading is the root to this success.
